+# SOL — sol-lane triage classification: verification record
+
+- Date: 2026-10-29
+- Lane: Triage — everyday Q&A and classification
+- Operator: sol
+- Artifacts under review:
+  - seed: `wizard-work/sol/sol-lane-triage-seed-2026-10-29.json`
+  - manifest: `wizard-work/sol/sol-lane-triage-2026-10-29.json`
+  - independent verifier: `wizard-work/sol/verify_sol_lane_triage.py`
+- Commits under test: 4bb16f0 (check-in `2026-10-29-sol-lane-triage-verify`)
+
+## Method (independent re-derivation)
+
+1. Re-read the frozen seed (216 files) and the committed manifest from the repo.
+2. Apply the re-embedded rubric to each recorded extension and compare against
+   the manifest's `category` per file.
+3. Re-check that every frozen path resolves to a real, non-ignored file.
+4. Cross-check aggregate counts (`total_files`, `by_category`).
+
+Exit 0 iff all four checks pass.
+
+## Real run output (measured on this host)
+
+```
+$ python3 /root/troupe-standup/wizard-work/sol/verify_sol_lane_triage.py
+VERIFY OK (216 files, categories re-derived, all paths present)
+```
+
+and, via the committed gate:
+
+```
+$ bash /root/troupe-standup/CHECK-sol-lane-triage-2026-10-29
+VERIFY OK (216 files, categories re-derived, all paths present)
+```
+
+- Manifest `total_files`: 216
+- Manifest `by_category`: data=56, script=92, text=68
+- Seed path count: 216
+- All 216 frozen paths present on disk and not ignored
+- Categories re-derived: 216/216 match the rubric
+
+## Verdict
+
+VERDICT: PASS — sol-lane triage manifest is complete and independently re-derivable:
+216 files classified (data=56, script=92, text=68) with every frozen path present.
+
+## CHECK
+
+Single bare command whose exit code is the verdict (0 = correct, nonzero = wrong):
+
+    bash /root/troupe-standup/CHECK-sol-lane-triage-2026-10-29
